Subject: RE: BS: Amazing conversation with a 19 yr. old..
A very very different system there from the one in the UK, and I think in most European countries, I'm glad to say from our point of view, though not from yours. (Here's a link to the British Association for Adoption and Fostering - incidentally next week is their 10th annual National Adoption Week.)

It does seem to me that for anyone concerned about these matters, whether they call themselves pro-choice or pro-life, one thing they'd be committed to do would be to fight to get rid of those kinds of barriers to adoption, as well as trying to reduce the social and financial pressures that can make talk of "choice" a mockery.
